As far as I’m aware they’ve smashed people this season. Yesterday 55% of EUW players that had been placed were in bronze with 34% being silver on top of that. More akin to the ranking changes in CS atm.

If everyone was dropped a rank, aren’t half of the player base in Bronze / Silver with only 10% being in gold? If so then 89% of people in Bronze and Silver seems correct. I don’t remember if it was 10% are Gold or 10% are Platinum before, I just know one of them was top 10%.
